We’ve stayed here several times and like the location. They were having to upgrade electrical so we’re without power for several hours. Did help us get access to an empty room though so we could get ready for a big event.

Decent place to stay. Not the most luxurious but bed was ok, room and bathroom were clean. That’s all I was hoping for. Didn’t get a chance to try the breakfast as me and the wife slept. Too tired. I’d stay again.

A simple but comfortable old school motel. Front desk was incredibly friendly, bed comfy, room clean and had all we needed. Nothing super fancy, but room was quiet enough at night for a good night sleep. It's nice that this type of motel is still around when chains seem to be taking over everywhere.

The room was clean and comfortable. The gentleman at the front desk was friendly and helpful. The only down side is that we travel with our dog and there really isn't anywhere to walk him except the streets.
